Chicago Reader review:
Akira Kurosawa's remarkable 1957 restaging of Macbethin samurai and expressionist terms is unquestionably one of his finest works—charged with energy, imagination, and, in keeping with the subject, sheer horror. Incidentally, this was reputed to have been T.S. Eliot's favorite film. With Toshiro Mifune and Isuzu Yamada.
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Here (and above) is the trailer.
